“What I love most about her is that she knows how to f*ck reality and make love to fantasy, not something many other humans know how to do. Imagination is her drink.” ~ Christopher Poindexter

The love of a Gemini can be the ride of your life—if you are able to accept that the only thing you can count on is the unexpected.

Gemini rules the hands, arms, and nervous system, which is why many born under this sign find themselves anxious if they feel cornered or at the end of a one-way street.

While their love of duality and exploration could be seen as flighty, there is no other sign that is more ready to blaze a new trail of individuality than the sweet, fun-loving Gemini.

This beautiful contradiction of a sign is represented by the twins—there is always another side to your Gemini than what first appears to the eyes.

Underneath their talkative nature exists a heart that is one of the most loyal of the zodiac, yet its secrets are only unlocked by the one they truly love and care for.

At first, it might not be easy to see if you have caught the heart and attention of your Gemini lover, but that is because this sign needs time to see if they can trust you before they show you just how much you mean to them.

This sign only trusts as much as they feel they are trusted; they only love as much as they feel loved, and at the first sign of an indiscretion between the two, they can bolt with lightening-fierce swiftness.

The secret to catching the eye of a Gemini is to approach them as if you are approaching a wild starling. You have to go slow, almost making it seem as if you aren’t approaching them at all. It’s important to show off your good graces, because this sign is heavily dominated by what appears beautiful and stunning to them.

It’s important for a Gemini to feel that they aren’t being caught—but instead making the choice to come of their own free will.

They need to see their possible mate loving life and living it up in a whirlwind of adventure and freedom, because the thing that all Geminis fear is stagnation—the bitter life of monotony and losing their sense of independence.

Yet, if you can continue on knowing that your Gemini is worth any chaos they might bring into your life, you will be rewarded with the most emotionally deep and powerful experience you have yet to encounter.

When a Gemini finally does love just one person, they do it with their whole heart.

They will give all of themselves and continually open up their heart until they have given their lover all they have to offer—yet they only do this with someone who they feel is worthy of their time and attention.

Time is the greatest gift the Gemini gives anyone in their lives, and they place a high value upon the attention they choose to give out to those individuals who are important to them. Geminis aren’t just looking for meaningless connections or people to pass the time with.

They want to be set on fire and have their minds explored.

Geminis need to feel a deep mental connection that seems to go beyond the ordinary measures of time and space, in order to be able to fully commit to just one person. They need a sense of adventure, not just in life, but in the bedroom as well.

This sign is the one most expected to be having a midday romp in the bright noon sunshine or to be getting busy three rows back inside of a darkened movie theater. When it comes to sex—they are up for anything, and they expect their partners to be as well.

Because of their need for mental stimulation, this is also a sign that is more apt to be using their words and messages on the phone to participate in some erotic foreplay.

If you are able to turn on the mind of a Gemini—you might just have them forever.

Yet, if a Gemini gets bored—or their partner begins to slip up and not be as present as they previously were—this sign won’t say anything; they will simply move on, letting another fill their needs.

This is also the sign that is most likely to have more than one lover at a time—not because they set out to be polyamorous, but simply because if one person can’t satisfy all of their needs their logical mind steers them in the direction of someone who can.

They aren’t doing this because they are selfish, or even because they don’t desire emotional intimacy, but simply because they need a constant stream of adventure and the feeling of “being kept on their toes” in order for them to not get bored and drift off in another direction.

The freedom-loving Gemini can be the most dedicated lover if you are able to give up whatever idea you had about what love should look like, and instead treat each day as an adventure—not just in life, but in love.

To love a Gemini is to understand that life will be anything but boring—and while it may be difficult to earn that place as this sign’s sole lover, once you do, you will never again experience a love so diverse.

Yet, even if you end up just being a passing fancy or one momentary burst of fireworks in an otherwise darkened sky, then no matter what happens or where life may lead, your Gemini’s love will always remain simply unforgettable.
